| The state has faced austere budgets
The state has faced austere budgets “When the nation thinks about Nevada, it should think about the world’s newest ideas and newest careers,Japanese Swords, not about its oldest profession,” Mr. Reid said. “If we want to attract business to Nevada that puts people back to Tarps work, the time has come to outlaw prostitution.”Consumed by the need to close a $1.5 billion budget gap, Gov. Brian Sandoval, a Republican, and the leaders in the Democratic-controlled Legislature issued terse statements suggesting that they would leave the issues of brothels up to local leaders. But that is hardly stopping the chatter.It is unclear what motivated Mr. Reid at this moment. When a reporter asked him why now, he answered, “If not now, when?”But some are arguing that now is precisely the time to Tarps embrace legal prostitution even more tightly. As the state has faced austere budgets, the brothels have indicated a willingness to pay more taxes, which would produce more revenue and simultaneously give the brothels more legitimacy if the state came to rely on the money. Some supporters of brothels, like Ms. Taylor, say they hope the debate will give them a chance to push to make prostitution legal in large counties in the state, where it is currently banned but widely acknowledged to exist.“Here we are being safe and professional and earning a living, and he wants us to end it? Absolutely not,” Ms. Taylor said in an interview in her bedroom at the Bunny Ranch. “This is what I choose to do, and there is nothing wrong with it.”Ms. Taylor, who does not use her given family name, graduated from college and worked as an administrator in a group home for young people for several years before she became a prostitute. The bedroom where she works is decorated with Tarps photos of Marilyn Monroe and framed copies of her posing in Hustler magazine. Ms. Taylor declined to discuss her rates, lest she be accused of soliciting across state lines, which would be illegal, but said, “Money is not my worry anymore.” Topics related articles： The Xoom a slightly more manageable feel The MAN collective The premiere of the opera "Anna Nicole" |
